    ST. PAUL, Minn. (KMSP) -

    A St. Paul mother and daughter pinned a burglar to the floor of their home and called police, while keeping a pink-stocked gun pointed at their intruder until officers arrived...Marty Childs was just released from prison for a first-degree burglary conviction on May 21. He has at least nine prior felony convictions for burglary, theft and other charges. Childs, 52, is charged with two counts of first-degree burglary in this case.

    Oh look, instead of innocent bystanders. Now the highly trained law enforcement officers are shooting - each other.

    PHOENIX — The U.S. Border Patrol agent killed last week in a shooting in southern Arizona apparently opened fire on two fellow agents thinking they were armed smugglers and was killed when they returned fire, the head of the Border Patrol agents' union said Sunday...


    Now if only the anti gun loons could have their way, disarming us mere lowly citizens. Just think how much safer we'd be.

    "A preliminary investigation revealed that a Capitol police officer had accidentally discharged their weapon in the security office of the residence."


    Yet another example how a uniform doesn't mean firearms competence.

    Even more laughable is a private citizen, even licensed to carry, isn't allowed to be armed in Government buildings. Apparently neither should the security police officers.

  5. I think if we mined the border with mexico it would solve a lot of the illegal immigration problem.

    Yes it would. It would be less expensive than a wall or more border patrol agents and more effective.

    TROY, MO. (KTVI) – A man wearing a Halloween mask burst into the Peoples Bank and Trust demanding money Tuesday, but the robbery was stopped by the bank’s president.
    David Thompson followed the suspect into the parking lot after the robbery.

    “I practice concealed carry and pulled my gun on him,” Thompson said.

    Police arrived moments later and arrested the suspect.

    “That is when I realized that he was a customer,” Thompson said. “He had one of our debit cards in his wallet.”

    Thompson told FOX2 News he was surprised someone would try to rob his bank.

    “We have a lawful concealed carry sign on the door, so that lets people know we can be armed,” he said.

    Police said the suspect was not armed....

    By crushing the US economy Barrack Obama has done more to stem illegal immigration from Mexico than any previous contemporary President lol. In SoCal they are actually leaving and heading back to Mexico where there is "work". :D

    COTTAGE LAKE, Wash. (CBS Seattle) – A Kings County Sheriff’s deputy has been put on administrative leave after being accused of shooting at a developmentally disabled man who was holding a toy gun.

    The Seattle Times reports police got multiple calls about a man waving a gun at passing vehicles.

    “The first deputy arrived minutes later and the man ignored her commands. When the man pulled the handgun from his waistband and raised it, the deputy fired about 25 yards away,” Deputy Charlie Akers told the paper. “The man dropped to the ground and other deputies moved in to handcuff him.”

    That’s when authorities discovered that the gun was a Lego toy...




    More highly trained policemen protecting us, from ourselves.
